Her pregnancy, the result of a casual affair with a married man, is a source of sorrow and shame to her abusive parents. For Takiko, however, it is a cause for reverie. Her baby, she imagines, will be hers and hers alone, a challenge but also an instrument for her long-wished-for independence. Takiko's first year as a mother is filled with the intense bodily pleasures and pains that come from caring for a newborn, learning how to accommodate him. At first Takiko seeks refuge in the company of other women, in the maternity hospital, in her son's nursery, but as he grows, her life becomes less circumscribed, expanding outward into previously unknown neighborhoods in her city and then beyond, into the countryside, toward a mountain that captures her imagination and feeling for a wilder freedom. First published in Japan in 1980, Woman Running in the Mountains is as urgent and necessary an account today of the experience of the female body and of a woman's right to self-determination."--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Fiction Tsushima (pbk) Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Tsushima   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Fiction Tsushima   Checked out 06/23/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Fiction Tsushima   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Tsushima   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mountain View P/S Library Adult Fiction Tsushima   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
